A bit of a worry

The impending event that is the “Windows 10 Anniversary Update” is becomming a bit of a worry. Ever since I upgradred my original Windows 95 to Windows XP, I have been using Microsofts banking software called Microsoft Money. Up until I upgraded to Windows 10, I was using the 2002 version which worked perfectly. I have never used the Online Banking features and I have no intention of using them in the future. So the worry is if this application will work after the latest so called Anniversary Update. The update does offer a lot of things and because of the version of Windows 10 that I’m using (Home Edition) I’m not going to be able to stop it updating.

This time next year, it may be all academic. K*** is all for us both changing banks to use a single bank. At the moment, we both have various seperate accounts with two different banks. The idea of just using one bank for all our accounts is an attractive idea and would negate the need for an offline banking application. But that’s for the future, the worrying is for now. I think I may just pull the Internet plug on one of my laptops. That would stop the updates until I’m sure that everything works okay, but that laptop was going to be the spare incase the older one that R*** uses fails! A bit of a quandry!
